Port numbers

During installation or an upgrade, you must specify the initial port number for Sterling B2B Integrator.

To specify an initial port number, follow these guidelines:
  • Sterling B2B Integrator requires a range of 200 consecutive open ports between 1025 and 65535.
    Note: Because of RMI, on occasion, a port number outside the range may be assigned.
  • The initial port number represents the beginning port number in the range.
  • Make sure that port numbers in the port range are not used by any other applications on your system.

For example, if you specify 10100 as the initial port number, then you need to make sure that 10100 through 10199 are not used by any other applications on your system.

During the upgrade, about 50 default ports are pre-assigned for different services. For example, if you do not want xxx32 (10132) to be a default port, you could assign another number within the port range.

After your installation or upgrade, refer to the following file for all of the port assignments.
  • For Windows: \<install_dir>\properties\sandbox.cfg
  • For Unix/Linux: /<install_dir>/properties/sandbox.cfg
